The second official trailer for "Zoolander 2" has been released, and in the clip, fans learned more about what Derek (Ben Stiller) has been up to since he saved the Prime Minister of Malaysia in the first installment.

The trailer, which was released on Tuesday, Nov. 1, shows a hooded figure being pursued by armed men on motorcycles. The person appears to be quite adept at dodging bullets as he is seen turning a somersault and even taking out one of the bad guys. The hood is pulled back, and the person is revealed to be Justin Bieber. Later, the pop star is cornered and shot, but before he dies, he posts a selfie, doing his best "Blue Steel" for the camera.

Interpol agent Valentina (Penelope Cruz) says, "That's six pop stars to die in the last year—all with that look." Valentina is shown at Interpol headquarters, and on the screen are all the people who have shared a photo of them doing the "Blue Steel" before they were assassinated—Bieber, Demi Lovato, Usher, Kendall Jenner, and Lenny Kravitz.

"There is only one person who would know how to interpret this look," says Valentina, and it's none other than the man who started the "Blue Steel"—Derek Zoolander. Unfortunately, the male model is in hiding and has distanced himself from civilization, and the trailer shows that he has been living in a cabin in the mountains.

Zoolander is now sporting a beard and a moustache, and he tells Hansel (Owen Wilson) that he is out of fashion and that he "lost the fire." Hansel tries to convince him that he's wrong and that he's still the same Derek Zoolander who stopped a Chinese throwing star with a single look, and to prove it, Hansel throws various objects at him to see if Derek can stop them with his "Magnum" look.

"Magnum, now!" Hansel yells as he throws the remote at Derek. It hits the model square in the face, but Hansel is undeterred and proceeds to throw more things at him.

"Maybe we could try a washcloth?" asks a dazed Derek.

"Zoolander 2" will see the return of Will Ferrell as Mugatu and Christine Taylor as Matilda Jeffries. The film has a star-studded lineup, which includes Benedict Cumberbatch, Olivia Munn, Kristen Wiig, Cara Delevingne, and Milla Jovovich, and it was reported that more celebrities will be making cameos as themselves in the movie.

"Zoolander 2" premieres on Feb. 12, 2016.
